Laura Engel is a Chilean/Dutch soprano. Her mother tongue is Spanish. Besides Spanish she fluently speaks Dutch, English and Italian. She has often performed with André Rieu and the JSO, but she won’t perform with him in July 2015 in Maastricht. She still will be there and has a big surprise for the fans: she’ll perform three mini concerts in Maastricht during the days of the Rieu concerts.

“Beautiful people,After a fantastic year of making music with some of my greatest friends touring with André Rieu and feeling your great enthusiasm, I got inspired. Now I want to give back. During this small break I only worked on music that touches my heart directly and a wonderful intimate contact is the result. I would really like to invite you to share this moment with me”.“Queridos,Después de un año fantástico haciendo música con algunos de mis mejores amigos. Estando en gira con André y sintiendo SU gran entusiasmo me inspire y quiero dar devuelta.
